We apply two compression methods to the galaxy power spectrum monopole/quadrupole and bispectrum monopole measurements from the BOSS DR12 CMASS sample. Both methods reduce the dimension of the original data-vector to the number of…

Void size function (VSF) contains information of the cosmic large-scale structure (LSS), and can be used to derive the properties of dark energy and dark matter. We predict the VSFs measured from the spectroscopic galaxy survey operated by…
